I've never used the insert menu. It's a better workout for the brain when
you need to remeber every command :)

Propably the manuals <a,b,c> <d,e,f> but for some strange reason I've gotten
the <a,b,c>,<d,e,f> superimposed to my brain. It works and that's what I'm
mostly after in my code (well ok I do have pretty strict rules for tabs and
whatnot)
